Fans of Animal Crossing and comfortable clogs rejoice — Nintendo's adorable life-sim series is coming to a pair of feet near you, thanks to a range of officially-licensed Crocs.
The shoes will go on sale later this summer with a platform clog design for adults and a classic kids clog design for children. Each is adorned with an Animal Crossing background, featuring fruit trees and a sandy shoreline.
And, of course, each can be customised with additional character charms, featuring Tom Nook, Isabelle and KK Slider, if you're willing to pay extra for the privilege.
The Animal Crossing Platform Clog for adults will cost $69.99, while the smaller Kids Animal Crossing Classic Clog will cost $54.99. Both are set to go on sale next month, on August 26.
Two packs of additional "jibbitz" charms will also available, priced at $16.99 — each. The first includes the three fashionable Sable sisters, plus a backpack and shirt. The second includes musuem owner Blathers, stargazing owl Celeste, scallop-loving Pascal, a fossil and a seashell.
Alternatively, you can pick up charms featuring villagers Rosie, Marshall or Bunnie for $4.99 each.
"Animal Crossing lets players enjoy a relaxing, slow-paced life while interacting with a cast of unique animal characters," Nintendo wrote, describing the introduction of this newly-licensed shoe range. "Since its debut in 2001, the games have been enjoyed by millions of players worldwide becoming a cherished title for fans of all ages. Now, for the first time ever, Crocs is partnering with Nintendo to debut a special collection launching Tuesday, August 26, 2025.
"This new collection features elements inspired by the lush, natural setting from the game. From the green tone that represents the land to the sole and strap inspired by the sea, see if you can discover all the Animal Crossing moments throughout the design of the shoe."
What next then for Animal Crossing, beyond shoes? Nintendo wound down ongoing support for Switch game Animal Crossing: New Horizons several years ago, despite its huge popularity. But with Switch 2 now released, a further sequel toetally feets inevitable. A shoo-in, if you will?
